REVIEW RESPONSE

PurpleCobra247: Yep, that chapter was pretty big in many ways. Glad you liked it. Hope you like the final chapter.

Rock Raider: On your first point, I fully understand. I have severe computer problems myself. On your second point, It's an interesting one. The chief of police is rather stubborn so he mmight not believe Shirley's prophecy, but that doesn't mean the other officers won't. On you third point, sorry about that. Guess I was a little careless, but the name of Ashley's dad in the game and Lola's dad are different, if that's what you meant. Finally, I know what the next FoxFang will be. Look at the peek at the end of this chapter. Nice idea though.

Nightw2: Well, the epilogue is here now. Glad you liked the story.

Reflection

On the way back, Lola requested that she was dropped off at the Looniversity where Bugs was having his meeting. When they were about to land, they actually saw Bugs leaving the Looniversity with his briefcase. He was heading towards the car ready to go home. FoxFang acted quickly and began landing the FoxChopper. Bugs couldn't really miss the FoxChopper as it landed the other side of the car. All he could do was watch in amazement as the door opened. He was even more amazed when Lola stepped out of the FoxChopper.

"Lo, what are you doing?" Bugs asked.

"Long story Bugs, but I was helping FoxFang with something." Lola replied.

"You were helping FoxFang?"

"Still don't know who he is."

"What did he need you for?"

"I'll explain on the way back." Before Lola could step in, FoxFang and Cub pushed Eagle out of the FoxChopper.

"Could you deliver this guy to the police?" Cub asked. Bugs immediately recognised him.

"Hey, he's our party crasher from last night."

"And he was abusing my father's invention." Lola added.

"Wow, seems like you do have a tale."

"I sure do. We'll have to tell Jessica tomorrow at some point."

"When you see your daughter tomorrow, say hi from us will ya?" FoxFang asked.

"Sure. She'll appreciate it." Bugs replied.

"But let's not disturb her. She'll be asleep when we get in. Wait until tomorrow morning." Lola added.

"Ok."

"Oh, one thing Brendan, how did you get past the two officers that we hired to watch over our party?"

"Heh, let's just say that they fell asleep on duty at my presence, and don't call me Brendan, it's Eagle now." Eagle replied

"Whatever."

"Oh, and FoxFang, try not to worry about the police." Bugs said.

"What do you mean?" FoxFang asked.

"I'm referring to the freak capture unit. I'm going to lead an appeal against it."

"Do what you want, we'll be fine."

"Ok, we'll pass your regards on to our daughter."

"It's a shame she couldn't come with me on that little adventure." Lola added. Cub climbed into the pilot's side of the FoxChopper while FoxFang sat in the passenger side. King had remained in the back this whole time. Cub then started up the FoxChopper and they began flying back to the Foxcave.

"If only they knew the truth." FoxFang thought to herself.


Later that night, Jessica and Zach were back in the Foxcave. The group were sitting near the computer celebrating a job well done. Zach had a look of extreme depression. He had been able to hold his feelings back until now but he was greatly stricken by the fact that Brendan rabbit was his father. He was related to someone who had put the life of his girlfriends' mother in jeopardy. That explained why Zach looked familiar to Brendan. He also had a very bad feeling that he would have to fight his father again. He didn't know what to do. He resented his father for abandoning him for his own selfish ends. He didn't want a father like that. He had grown used to having Daffy as a father and quite liked him. On the other hand, he was his true father, who had abandoned him when he was two. He wanted to know what life was like when he lived with Brendan. Jessica was sitting next to him and she noticed how depressed he was getting.

"Zach, what's wrong?" Jessica asked.

"It's Brendan. He's my father but I can't accept it." Zach replied.

"I kind of know your pain, based on what mum told me about the day when she met her father."

"It's just so crazy. He's so intent on restoring his family fortune that he's willing to abandon me."

"I know. Some people are ignorant. But I really don't know what to say."

"What should I do?"

"Zach, here's a thought. How would you define a father?"

"Erm…someone who raises a child until they are ready to leave?"

"That would be how I'd define it."

"So based on that description, Brendan isn't my father, Daffy is."

"Exactly, I think you should try and forget about Brendan and focus on your life with Daffy…and me."

"Yeah, you're right. Thanks Jess." Zach turned around and gave Jessica a compassionate hug. He loved Jessica more than anybody else. They protected and helped each other through thick and thin. What had started out as a normal friendship turned into a healthy relationship. They fought alongside each other to protect their friends, family and citizens. It was their love that allowed them to prevail. Zach and Jessica counted on each other equally. Zach pulled back slightly so he could look into Jessica's eyes. Jessica wrapped her arms around him and pulled him closer. Zach still had his arms around Jessica. They looked at each other for a few seconds before finally coming together and kissing tenderly. They were practically breathing each other's air but they didn't care. They loved having these romantic moments together. They both secretly wondered how far their relationship would go but knew only time would tell. They still held their kiss and savoured the moment. They only paused to take a breath of fresh air before kissing again. Zach then toppled backwards and was now on the floor with Jessica on top of him. They were still holding their kiss but were eventually interrupted when the Fangwave sounded. They wearily woke up and had a look at the computer. There was a break in at a grocery store in the centre of town.

"Oh well, we can continue this later." Jessica muttered.


The next day, Daffy and Melissa stayed away from work. Melissa had been very ill and they had gone to the hospital on the Sunday afternoon for some tests to see what was wrong. Throughout the whole of Sunday, Melissa had been vomiting and complaining of headaches and stomach pains. Zach had no idea of what was wrong and was very concerned with the health of his adoptive mother. For today, he had gone into school with Bugs, Lola and Jessica while Daffy and Melissa had gone to the hospital to see the results. They had dropped Zach off at Bugs' burrow early in the morning so they could get down to the hospital. The four had only just gotten into the car and were heading towards the Looniversity. Along the way, Lola decided to tell Jessica and Zach about what had happened last night. She had told Bugs' the story already, as well as the story of her first visit to Blood Rabbit Island.

"Jess, you won't believe what happened last night." Lola began.

"What. I knew you had gone to the theatre before I went to bed. Did something else happen?" Jessica asked.

"I met FoxFang again."

"Again?"

"Yeah, and he let me ride in one of his vehicles."

"You rode in one of his vehicles?"

"Yeah. It was a helicopter that could fly faster than sound."

"Mum, you have made me so jealous now."

"You want to ride with him do you?"

"Of course I do."

"Well, if it makes you feel better, he sends you his regards."

"He remembers me?"

"When did you meet him?"

"When he saved me from that freak last year."

"Oh yeah, I forgot about that."

"So, where did he take you?"

"Back to Blood Rabbit Island."

"Where's that?" Zach asked.

"It's an island in the pacific ocean."

"It's got a bit of a gruesome name. How did it get that name?"

"Because almost all of the members of that family that lived there died."

"Why did he take you back there?" Jessica asked.

"Because someone was abusing another."

"What?"

"FoxFang and Cub found Sylvester abandoned near a derelict mansion on the edge of town. Apparently, Sylvester's memory had been tampered with."

"Who was it?"

"That Brendan rabbit from the other night."

"Our party crasher?"

"Yeah, and last of the family from that island."

"He's from that family?"

"Yeah."

"This is confusing." Zach complained.

"Probably because you haven't heard the story of my last visit."

"I'll tell you at some point." Jessica said.

"Thanks Jess." Zach replied.

"Oh Zach, one thing I'd better say about Brendan." Lola said.

"What about him?" Lola could feel her heart sink. Although Zach wasn't her son, what she had to tell him was very difficult. She was worried about how he'd reach to knowing that Brendan was he father. He had to know though, as he knew nothing about his past.

"Zach, Brendan…is your…father." Zach feigned shock by letting out a loud gasp. He fooled Bugs and Lola completely but Jessica knew that he already knew. She also let out a gasp to fool her parents.

"He's my…dad?"

"Yes."

"Then why did he abandon me?"

"I remember he said that once he'd restored the fortune, he'd come and reclaim you."

"He abandoned me just so he could restore the family fortune?"

"Apparently."

"That is selfish. There is no way I'd have a father like that!"

"Zach, I know how you feel." Bugs said.

"You do?"

"Yeah, but I'll explain some other time."


While this was going on, Daffy and Melissa were in one of the hospital rooms with their nurse. The room they were I was of a very plain design, with a desk and computer and a few chairs. The desk was also loaded with medical equipment and a printer, which was used to print out prescriptions. The room was also covered in posters regarding health and diet. Most of the posters were of humans but there were posters of other species as well, mainly Rabbits, Ducks, Cats and other birds. The nurse was Minerva Minx. Even in a hospital, she turned people's head, no matter what species they were. Daffy did fall victim to it first time they saw her until Melissa slapped him with what strength she had. He had since been able to control it much better. She was holding a brown envelope, which contained the results of the tests that had been done on Melissa to find out what was wrong with her.

"So, how have you been?" Minerva asked.

"Better but I still don't feel right." Melissa replied.

"And how about you Daffy?"

"Anxious to find out what's wrong." Daffy replied.

"I think we all are."

"What do you mean?"

"I haven't had a look either, and I'm sure your adopted son is going to be anxious as well."

"We'll have to tell him when we pick him up from school later."

"Yeah, well let's have a look at the results."

"Are you ok about this?"

"Nervous." Melissa replied.

"I am as well. I hope it's nothing serious."

"What if it is?" Daffy held onto Melissa's hand and hugged her.

"I doubt it is. Let's hope for the best."

"Ok." Minerva tore the envelope she was holding open and pulled out a white sheet of paper. She scanned the data and read the information. She eventually read the diagnosis at the bottom. When she read this, she smiled. Daffy and Melissa gave a sigh of relief as they could tell it wasn't serious.

"So it isn't serious?" Daffy asked.

"Nope." Minerva replied.

"What is it then?" Melissa asked.

"Melissa…you're pregnant."


TH-TH-TH-THAT'S ALL FOLKS!

A/N: There, that's the fifth FoxFang story. Now I can work on that co-op story with Nightw2: You'll have to forgive me if I'm a bit slow with it as it will be my first co-written story. I also have a western type story to do as well as FoxFang 6. Glad I'm on half-term for the week. Anyway, here's a quick peek of the 6th FoxFang

FoxFang: Return of the Pranker

Ok, it's kinda obvious of what's going to happen in the next story but there's a bit more. I won't be spoofing any other Batman villains in the next FoxFang. The premises of FoxFang 6: Pranker's back, and she spoils Buster and Babs' special night. Soon after her return, an incident occurs which forces Jessica to make a difficult decision. What is this decision? All will be revealed in the future. You're welcome to guess.
